No Audio in Apps

Since upgrading to iOS 7, I have had issues with the audio.  It works for alerts and ring tones, but not in any apps using music or video.  Volume buttons on side does nothing, and the volume bar in the apps is greyed out and you can't use it.  How can I fix this?  Looking around I see this problem seems to be out there quite a bit, but have not come across anything that fixes it.  Done a soft and hard reset.

OK, Soundflower has been removed (using kextunload etc.), MBP restarted, makes no difference. Still no audio in iTunes, VLC or djay.
I should also point out that, when I plug in headphones, the system audio preferences recognises them appropriately.
Fortunately, I've found and corrected the problem. I'd also installed Hear, and at some point it picked up a 'Mute' setting. It's not visible anywhere else and overrode all the other settings I've mentioned so far. Once that Mute was cleared, lo and behold, sound from everything.
Big fat duh!
Seasons greeting and apologies for wasting anyone's time...

  • Why doesn't Apple supply a simple audio recording app with the iPad? (Garage Band is not simple app)

    I am going to be teaching an integrated media production course in the spring semester (creating an online college newspaper) and I want the students to use mini iPads to create images, videos and sound clips.   Images and video, no problem.   Easy to move to our iMacs in the lab for editing and inclusion in a college newspaper web site.   On the other hand, audio is a mess.   Sure, I can have them shoot video, import the video into Final Cut on the iMacs and then use Final Cut like an audio editor, but that is pretty lame.   They could download Garage Band but that would require all the students to have iTunes accounts, which is a real pain.   And moving audio recording made with Garage Band to the iMac is a real drag and way too much work.   Why the **** can't Apple include a simple audio memo program in the basic iPad app setup?   This is really old school stuff that was on computers way back when.   Using Garage Band for that simple function is like swatting flies with a sledge hammer.

  • Under Option Summary, the usage includes AUDIO, PHOTOS, APPS and OTHERS. What are the things included in OTHERS? It is using up my storage space.

    Under Option Summary, the usage includes AUDIO, PHOTOS, APPS and OTHERS. What are the things included in OTHERS? It is using up my storage space. Can someone please help?

    To add to Nick's comments, "Other" is typically approximately 1 gigabyte.  Occasionally for some users, it gets much (many times) bigger because they have some corrupt files.  If that's the case, it's best to restore the iPhone.
    Plug the iPhone into (current) iTunes, let it sync, then choose "Restore" on the right.  If restoring from the iPhone backup does not help, then restore (again) as new and then manaully sync the iPhone.

  • "Audio Music Apps" Folder

    I recently upgraded to Logic Pro 10.0.7, I migrated from Logic Pro 9 before and have used Logic X ever since it came out.
    If I try to load a Channel Strip Setting in the Mixer view, the menu is now completely empty, with all the Logic and Garage Band settings in a "Old Versions" subfolder. After doing some research I found out there are now three locations where settings are saved:
    /Library/Application Support/Logic/
    ~/Library/Application Support/Logic/
    ~/Music/Audio Music Apps/
    Saving new Channel Strip Settings defaults to folder 3. Content in folder 1 seems to appear in the "old versions" menu within Logic.
    Is there any documentation about these folders and how they're used by Logic? Is it save to move my content to the "Audio Music Apps" folder, so that my settings appear at the top level menu again? Is it save to delete folders 1 and 2?
    I'm currently on OS X 10.9.4, Late 2013 Retina MBP (2.6 GHz, 8 GB RAM)

    First of all, DON'T DELETE FOLDER 1. This is a system folder that you should not touch.
    Folder 2. and 3. are technically the same folder. They are pointing to the same files/folder on the hard drive. Try this: have bothe windows open and move a file into the Patches folder in one window. It will appear also on the other folder. Move a file into the Drummer folder. It will appear in the other folder too.
    Leave Folder 2. It is just for compatibility reasons for Logic 9. If you delete it, the files would still be in the "Audio Music Apps", but you would have no access to them from Logic 9.
    Everything you do in LPX, GarageBand X and MainStage happens in the same "Audio Music Apps". They all access now the same folder. This makes file management so much easier for the three apps because they don't need their separate Library directory anymore.
    I explain that ned concept throughout in great details throughout my manual "Logic Pro X - How it Works". Here is just a screenshot from the Library chapter that discusses all those different settings files (Patch, Channel Strip Settings, Plugin Settings, EXS Instrument)
    Hope that helps

  • What is that audio "rack" app in the new ipad2 "Love" spot?

    What is that audio "rack" app in the new ipad2 "Love" spot?
      It's in the scene where a garage bank is playing and  a guitar player reaches over and turn a knob on the ipad rack. I can't find it searching mixer, audio,mixer, plugin rack, etc.  Does anyone now what it's called?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    It sure looks like StompBox to me. Look at it again. I've watched the video of the ad 5 times in full screen and I still think it's StompBox.
    Go to the App Store on the iPad. Tap on What's Hot at the top. Swipe down to the middle of the screen. Tap on Apps from iPad TV ads. Look through the apps yourself.
    If it isn't StompBox, then it must be GarageBand. They are only showing two music/mixer type apps in there. The only other music related app in there is Spin Play.

  • Audio Music Apps Folder Confusion

    I realize that the Audio Music Apps folder and the User library > Application Support > Logic folders are supposed to be hard linked together, basically pointing to the same folder. but on my installation they are not. Although a couple of the folders are linked within these two folders, for example the Key Commands folder as well as one other folder are linked. But every other folder within these two folders are no longer linked. I have tested this repeatedly.
    How on earth would I go about relinking these two folders? Or does it even matter? I'm getting the feeling that Audio Music Apps folder is the significant folder and User library > Application Support > Logic folder is only there for sake of Logic Pro 9.
    Is this the case? And if not, what should I do about this?
    Please advise. Much appreciated.

  • [ PROBLEM ] Audio Control app wont recognise card properly

    Hi
    I have a X-Fi ExtremeGamer card in my Win 7 home premium setup and am struggling to set it up properly.
    Long story short , I pulled out the X-Fi card and tried the onboard audio as I was getting an issue with the audio playing around using the creative drivers ( volume changes mid song, positional audio in games was often unusal ).
    The Realtek stuff wasnt too bad but I wanted to try my X-Fi card again, it is suppose to be better after all.
    Anyways...
    I disabled the onboard audio , safe mode and cleaned all the realtek drivers out and any lingering creative drivers with Driver Sweeper, used CCleaner to clean up the reg and rebooted.
    Installed the BETA drivers from creative and the audio works fine, but when I try use the crystaliser or other SB features the app complains
    " The audio device supported by this application is not detected. The application will exit. "
    I installed Daniel_K's drivers from a CD ISO he put out a while back, and the applications worked fine but the audio dropped in and out, so I downloaded the official creative drivers for my card and OS, and the application worked fine again but as with Daniels drivers the audio dropped in and out so I reverted to the beta drivers... and the audio dropped in and out as well.
    I worked it out to being the volume controls on the creative 5. speakers , which every set of speakers I have bought from creative have had the same issue, the volume slider on the cable... after some use it messes up the audio and it becomes safer just to adjust the volume in the software.
    After deciding the issue was with the volume slider on the cable, I wanted to re-install Daniel_K's driver pack so I could access the other features, now it suddenly doesnt recognise the device anymore, nore does the official none beta drivers from creative, nor does the latest PAX drivers ... all report the same issue:
    " The audio device supported by this application is not detected. The application will exit. "?
    I am starting to tear my hair out here, the audio works and the card is recognised in the Device Manager as 'Creative SB X-Fi' , I have clean the drivers , the registery , used the patch that fixes a bug where the update wouldnt recognise cards properly , re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re installed the drivers.... carefully EACH time.
    I triple checked I was downloading the Win 7 64bit OS ver of the X-Fi ExtremeGamer drivers.
    What now ?
    ALSO Who thought it was a bright idea to put up the volume to 87% when you install drivers ? It also unmutes the volume if you mute it before restart, and it puts the volume back up to 87% if you dare to lower the volume before rebooting the PC to complete the install.
    ( NOTE: It only does this after the initial reboot to complete the install, subsequent re-boots leaves the volume alone )

    I give up...
    I sent a form to the tech guys , detailing the problem and outlining the steps I took to fix the issue...and they direct me to http://support.creative.com/kb/ShowA...aspx?sid=55438?, oh I can use Device Manager to uninstall , oh and Control Panel - Programs to unistall the Creative stuff ( note: I am being very sarcastic here ).
    This is the information I sent the tech:
    Detailed Problem Description:
    Creative audio application does not recognise SB X-Fi card , card audio functions just cant control the feature set. Error msg : " The audio device supported by this application is not detected. The application will exit. " Suspect nVidia installing of HD audio drivers causing 4 (four) additional High Definition Audio Devices to appear in the device manager screen. Unable to uninstall these devices as Win7 auto re-reinstalls with generic MS drivers, can only disable. Creative SB X-Fi card listed in audio devices as 2 - SB X-Fi. Suspect the audio control application looks in the first slot and doesnt recognise the device and fails, doesnt look at the 2 ( second slot ? ) Tried a full uninstall including going to safe mode and removing drivers with Driver Sweeper, CCLeaner to clear out registry entries and removed the card, booted to windows without the card , re-seated the card and re-installed the drivers.

    Thank you
    and this is the advice I got ...
    Thank you for contacting Creative Labs.
    To avoid installing the incorrect driver on your soundcard, we suggest that you do a full uninstallation using the guidelines, steps provided in our website. Shutdown your PC then take out the card and make sure to place it on another slot. Second, disable your onboard audio and if your graphic card comes with any audio support as well, disable this feature.

  • Beats audio android app external sound problem.

    Hey guys,
    Recently i downloaded the Beats Audio Android app for my Optimus 2. At first it worked fine, the external sound was good, as well as the headphone output. Very shortly after the external sound became very fuzzy and loud, with the headphone output still working perfectly. The only feature that would play sound without fuzz was speakerphone while in a call. I decided to factory default my phone thinking it would fix the problem, i was already going to do it anyway. Come to find out everything got wiped including beats audio, but the same old external sound problems persisted. I'm not sure how to fix it and it is very annoying and sometimes randomly goes off. Help is greatly appreciated, thanks.
    -Tyler
    Maybe it has something to do with the master volume? Although i'm not sure how to access that either..

    Hello,
    I see that you are having trouble with the beats audio app on your phone. I would suggest that you post your issue here as well for assistance. The link will take you to the android forum for your phone.
